Nano Ganesh Nano Ganesh is a product which allows farmers to use mobile phones to remotely monitor and switch on irrigation pumps used for watering crops in remote locations. The application was developed by Ossian Agro Automation in Pune, India, and works in conjunction with Tata Teleservices phones. Its development began in 1996 by Santosh Ostwal, an Ossian Agro engineer and son of a farmer.〔 Approximately 5,000 farmers in Maharashtra state have been using Nano Ganesh since 2008. As of mid-2009 it is being tested in Anand district in the Indian state of Gujarat.〔 The device can be attached to any existing electrical starter and motor pump.〔 ==Usage== In some parts of India, farmers have to walk several kilometres to turn on the irrigation pumps that water their fields. With the electrical supply often erratic, they sometimes find that there is no electricity when they reach the pump. Nano Ganesh allows them to remotely check to see that there is electricity, and to automatically turn the pump on and off, all through a mobile phone.〔 It helps the farmer avoid various difficulties in reaching remote water pumps, such as long travel over difficult terrain, bad weather, and hazardous locations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nano Ganesh ) 〕 It also means growers don't have to wake up in the middle of the night, which is often the only time electricity is available, to walk the long distances to their fields. They sometimes hire workers to walk the long distances to turn the pumps on and off.
